It is said that branches draw their life from the vine. Each is separate yet all are one as they share one life giving stem . The Bible tells us we are called to a similar union in life, our lives with the life of God. We are incorporated into him; made sharers in his life. Apart from this union we can do nothing.

I mutibooted with linux, xp and vista for quite a while. That grub boot can be a real pain when trying to kick linux and retain windows. And vista by itself is enough to muck up anything. Windows 7 saved the day from that disaster. I currently have one system with 8 primary partitions with several flavors on it of course. No more of that stinkin vista though.

Seems they re arranged the looks of things and although they are also releasing Internet explorer 10 windows itself will in essence be a web browser.

I multibooted WinXP, Win7 and Win8. It is quite diff. The gui is very nice. But if your not a bit pc savvy the controls might definately throw you off. No start button in the bottom tool bar for the start menu, shut down and program files. I wonder how much will change from what I'm seeing now.
